In fifth grade my friend George created a club of which he was president. He invited me to be his vice-president. I remember George with great fondness; he had the sweetest mother and what seemed to me to be an incredibly lengthy and elaborate Lionel train setup. I cannot remember, however, any activity undertaken by our club, except to invite other classmates to join as officers and members and, occasionally, to deny membership. There were periodic reshufflings of officer positions, which George and I took very seriously although I’m not sure anyone else did. Membership may have peaked at ten boys, or about half our small class
